The International Dimension of the New York College Group
1989: New York College is founded in Athens, in collaboration with the American State University STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK, the largest university in the USA, based on the first in Greece international academic convention of certification. That historic convention not only gave the unique opportunity to pupils and students in Greece for internationally recognized studies, but also shaped the map of post-secondary education in Greece, paving the way for other collaborations with state universities in America and Europe.
1998: After 9 years of successful operation, New York College, the only Greek college of international development, establishes the University of New York in Prague in Czech Republic: the first private higher education institution recognized as a Private University by the Czech Ministry of Education.
